"Okay, throw him down!" Two muscular men with bare upper bodies on the ring, their arms tangled with each other, wrestling with each other; the bursts of shouts from the audience made both of them work hard, fearing that they would lose at the hands of the other. Lost face.
"Don't lose, I made a big bet of one hundred taels of silver."
"If you lose, I will cut you into pieces." There was a lot of abuse in the audience, making the two men work even harder.
On the high platform on the right side of the arena, six girls in yellow shirts danced to the brisk music. The oil-paper umbrellas in their hands opened and closed, like a beautiful picture of smoke and rain.
"Oh! This girl from Ziyan Pavilion is different. She is even more beautiful when dancing." A scholar-like young man in blue under the high platform waved the fan gently and praised.
"Haha! Brother Lu is right, but it's a pity that we can only watch from a distance and not be able to kiss Fangze." Although the young man in white next to the scholar in blue was talking, his thief-like eyes were staring straight at the stage. The young girl was unwilling to move away for a long time.
"Brother Wang is still so unruly and unruly, I admire you." Lan Yi looked at the lost look of the young man in white and laughed loudly: "Those who can come to Ziyan Pavilion are either rich or noble, but no one dares to violate the rules here. , I advise Brother Wang to give up on this idea."
"Hmph! I just don't believe in this evil!" The young man in white snorted heavily: "Brother Lu, do you know that there is a rule in this pavilion. If any girl voluntarily commits herself, she will not be punished."
"It seems like this!" The scholar in blue still kept shaking the fan: "But even so, you have to pay a lot of money."
"My Wang family doesn't have many other things, but we have a lot of silver, not even a hundred or two thousand taels." The young man in white said with a proud look on his face: "Brother Lu, how about we make a bet?"
"Oh? How do you want to bet, Brother Wang?" The scholar in blue smiled: "But let me declare first, if the bet is too small, don't say anything."
"These six girls, I will definitely be able to bring one of them out of the pavilion." The young man in white pointed at the girl in yellow who was walking lightly on the high platform: "Let's bet a thousand taels of silver."
"Although one thousand taels is just a drop in the bucket to this young master, since Brother Wang wants to bet, I will be my companion." The scholar in blue shirt closed the fan in his hand, looked at the pockmarked face of the young master in white, and thought to himself : "With your majestic appearance, aren't you giving me some money?"
"So this is Ziyan Pavilion?" Liu Ningshi secretly followed Xiaoliu and Huanyu and found out the truth. She felt very sad. She didn't want to drag anyone down, so she sneaked out of the inn, but unexpectedly heard Lan Lan's voice. The bet between the scholar in white shirt and the young master in white shirt.
"Huh? Why are there spiritual fluctuations?" After Liu Ningshi rested for a night, although the zhenqi in her body still fluctuated randomly from time to time, it was much better than when she had just used the Qianying Sword; and this fluctuating spirituality made She didn't feel any discomfort, but felt very comfortable.
"Is it the Yin Nongdie left by Miss Misu?" Liu Ningshi gently stroked the bamboo tube around her waist, her tiny spirit gradually calming down.
"I remember Miss Misu once said that this silver butterfly can point out the direction of Li Shu." Liu Ningshi raised her head and looked at the man wrestling, and then at the dancing girl. She felt that although there was a lot of singing and dancing here, it was lively. Extraordinary, but undercurrent.
"Brother Yuze, don't worry. No matter where we are in the world, Ningshi will definitely find out who is behind the drug tester and avenge you and the people who were harmed in the village." Liu Ningshi strengthened her belief, and the grief in her heart lessened. few.
Several girls in yellow attire with tied hair and heroic looks passed by Liu Ningshi's eyes with swords in their hands, and not long after, several men in yellow attire came in the opposite direction.
"I remember Xiao Liu said that the people guarding the pavilion door have the same clothes as them." Liu Ningshi looked at them, then looked at her own uniform, which was stained with dust, and couldn't help but laugh: "It is necessary to change. Clothes."
Ziyan Pavilion is a fascinating but frightening place; commercial facilities such as music houses, brothels, gambling houses, inns, banks, and medical shops are all available, and they are all named after Ziyan; as long as you have money here, you can You can live in a state of intoxication and intoxication, but if you violate the rules of the pavilion, you will pay an immeasurable price. Although this place is named after the pavilion, its scale has reached one-third of the Stone City, making it a city within a city.
Liu Ningshi walked around the high platform and saw the large mahogany characters of Ziyanyi Shop from a distance. There was a constant flow of customers in front of the shop, all saying "
Mostly girls.
"I didn't expect the business here to be so good." Although Liu Ningshi was wearing a court uniform, her outstanding temperament actually attracted some girls around her to look at her.
"Pleated Ruyi Moon Skirt, Cui Wen Feather Brocade Cloak, Spring Flower Dark Pattern Clothes..." Liu Ningshi didn't care about the gazes around her and went to browse the store: "The clothing categories here are really complete. , some may not even have it in Jinling City!"
"I wonder if the shop can help you?" Although the waiter who greeted guests was wearing civilian clothes, he didn't look shabby.
"Little brother, how much money does that outfit cost?" Liu Ningshi asked, pointing to a set of bright yellow thick shirts hanging in the closet.
"Oh! Your Majesty, you are so discerning. This suit is made of Wu County's finest Hu silk. It matches your temperament perfectly." This young man is indeed a businessman, and he is flawless in flattering you.
Liu Ningshi thought about it and realized that this costume was somewhat similar to the costumes of the guards just now. It would be easier to find people if they put it on.
"It's the so-called sword to match a hero, and pink powder for a beautiful woman." Seeing Liu Ningshi staring at the clothes in silence and looking hesitant, the shop clerk began to strike while the iron was hot: "This suit of clothes was supposed to cost fifteen taels of silver, even if Guest officer Shiliang is ready."
"Ten taels?" Liu Ningshi blurted out unknowingly: "Man, how many taels of silver are needed for the sets of clothes over there?"
"The first set on the right costs thirty taels, and the second set costs thirty-five taels..." The store clerk introduced the silver prices of the clothes to Liu Ningshi one by one.
"The Yin family here is more than twice as expensive as the clothing store in Jinling City?" Although Liu Ningshi has no worries about food and clothing in Zhongshu Mansion, she is also a frugal person. Now she was shocked by the Yin family of Ziyan Clothing Store. , thinking: "What on earth is this Ziyan Pavilion?"
"Sir, what do you think of these clothes?" The shop clerk became impatient when he saw Liu Ningshi not remaining silent.
"Hmm! This set of Hu Chou's yellow shirt suits me very well." Liu Ningshi casually threw a ten tael of silver to the shop assistant: "That's it."
"Okay!" The store clerk caught the heavy silver with both hands and almost burst into laughter: "Young man, I'll wrap it up for you."
"No need!" Liu Ningshi pointed to her imperial uniform: "Find a place for me to change into. This outfit is too ostentatious now, isn't it?"
"That's it! That's it!" As the saying goes, money can be a fool's errand. The shop clerk got the silver and said with a flattering face: "Master, if you don't mind, please come and follow me to the back hall."
I don't know how long it took, but Jade Rabbit slowly opened his eyes. The surroundings were pitch black, and there was a musty smell.
"Where is this?" Yutu remembered that Salba said he would take them to see Zuo Tianhao, but instead asked him and Tong Bo to drink medicinal wine.
"If my guess is correct, this should be the place Salpa mentioned?" As the voice reached Jade Rabbit's ears, a ray of light also caught her eyes.
"Guard Tong!" Jade Rabbit saw Tong Bo's resolute and calm face, and felt a lot more at ease: "Where is Salba?"
"Where else can we go? We must be negotiating terms with Zuo Tianhao." Tong Bo looked around with the faint light, and finally found a still usable wooden stick in the secret room, and put out the fire. Go up: "Yeah! This makes it much brighter."
"Negotiate terms?" After all, Yutu is her daughter's family, and she always likes to be clean. In such a musty-smelling space, she subconsciously covered her nose with her hands.
"Did Zuo Tianhao kidnapped Sha An? How could he believe our words?" Tong Bo embedded the torch into the wall with an indifferent attitude and sat cross-legged: "I'm afraid he is with Zuo Tianhao at this time. Isn’t Hao very noisy?”
"I'm afraid Salba will be disappointed this time." Yutu thought of Tong Bo's previous analysis and smiled, but then his face became sad: "But how can we get out?"
"Go out?" Tong Bo half-squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Why do you need to go out when you have a beautiful woman like Rabbit Guard accompanying you?"
"Wei Tong, I'll ignore you if you keep joking around." Jade Rabbit's cheeks were red, and he didn't know whether it was caused by the firelight or shyness.
"Shh!" Tong Bo made a silent gesture and pointed towards the front of the secret room, but still joked: "Did you feel wronged by the rabbit guard by sharing the same room with Tong?"
"I, I... I'm just not used to the smell here." Yutu also realized Tong Bo's intention, but was a little disappointed subconsciously.
"Oh! Mr. Sha really knows how to treat virtuous corporals?" Tong Bo deliberately amplified his voice and shouted: "Just build such a shabby room?"
"Weiwei Tong, do you have a way to escape?" Yutu followed suit this time and used his inner strength to transmit the subtle voice.
"I just heard something moving outside the secret room through the wall!" Tong Bo gestured towards the wall behind Jade Rabbit with his eyes and said through the voice: "Look for an opportunity to lure them into the urn."
"If the smell here kills us, he will never know the whereabouts of Sha An." Yutu also cooperated with Tong Bo in acting.
"Oh? Guard Rabbit knows the whereabouts of Sha An?" Tong Bo raised his thumb towards Jade Rabbit, but his words were full of anger: "Then why didn't you tell Master Sha in his inn?"
"We weren't sure about Mr. Sha's whereabouts at the beginning?" Yutu raised his voice a little more: "But now..."
"How are you now?" Tong Bo talked to Yutu while leaning on the wall and listening to the movement on the other side of the secret room.
"The smell here is too pungent. I feel uncomfortable all over and don't want to talk about it anymore." Jade Rabbit said.
"Hey! It doesn't matter whether you say it or not. He is Mr. Sha's son anyway." Tong Bo signaled Yutu to stop talking, and he leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to recuperate: "Since Mr. Sha is not in a hurry, then we will No hurries?"
"Weiwei Tong, although I did as you said, can they be fooled?" Yutu's heart pounded.
"Don't worry, Salba put these people here just to listen to what we two said." Tong Bo said in a message: "As long as he doesn't get what he wants from Zuo Tianhao, he will definitely come back to us!"
